gradle transitive dependencies in APK
adding an Android dependency (for example OkHttp) as:
api 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:3.11.0'
in a gradle (sub) module will make it available to other modules when included (eg in the main android app module)
This removes the need to add implementation 'com.squareup.okhttp3:okhttp:3.11.0' in the modules.
Is there any difference in the resulting APK size to have each module include the dependency separately as implementation [...] instead of just once as api [...] in a module that other app-modules depend on.
In other words are api gradle-dependencies from an included module included into the resulting APK in their entirety (disregarding ProGuard) and assuming said dependency is referenced and has at least one method invocation.
These links describe the compilation-visibility differences but not whether or not there is any difference in the resulting APK.
